“Everybody needs a break, everybody deserves that second chance. Bob and I had taken ours.”
- James Bowen
In this story, the two main characters are James Bowen, a London street musician, and a London street cat Bob. They were homeless and lonely, but one day they met each other ...
James suffered from drugs and despair, there was no meaning in his life until a four-legged friend appeared in it, who helped him cope with problems, brought good luck and became a real guardian angel. Now Bob and James are well known not only by the residents of London, who meet them on the streets, in the subway and cafes, but hundreds of thousands of people around the world.
This wonderful book tells the story of a man and his furry friend, who found themselves on the street but found the strength to support each other. James is aware and grateful to his red-haired friend for the sense of hope that the cat has brought into his life. Despite the title, this book is not only about the cat, but also about James, who tells about how he came to street life, how he tried to get rid of drug addiction, about how hard it was for him to live on the street. This story tells us that faith and love save us, and hope gives us strength to live.
